I know what you are suffering being in a family of 3 sisters and a female dog. But seriously, i have learned to take vitamin B and B6 for optimum menstral and mental health. I also have learned to look ahead to my calendar and see that during this time of mood swings not to put so much pressure on myself with tasks and outings. Another good thing for menstrul health is to treat the pain well and not just with asprin. I would say that 70% of my moods, depression and anger come from being in pain. I had to get a script from my doctor for it and man does it help. Some people can take simple midol or advil but treating the overall body and mind will give better results than just treating the symptoms of it. I also bought a hot pack that is used for neck pain and i stretch it across my stomach for relief in cramps and lay on it for lower back pain. Give her plenty of space and dont take it personal. Help her get through it and support her if she needs a friend or person to hit :O)

That is an age old question!!! Some women suffer from SEVERE PMS. She should contact her doctor. Some recommend a low dose antidepressant which helps to aleviate some of these symptoms. In addition, avoiding caffeine, alcohol, fatty foods, and getting plenty of rest as well as allot of water during this time is imperative. Dr. Hotze is a specialist in the Houston area in hormones. Maybe she could check out his website for some additional tips. Good luck.
